arXiv:2603. 18652v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reliably extracting tables from PDFs is essential for large-scale scientific data mining and knowledge base construction, yet existing evaluation approaches rely on rule-based metrics that fail to capture semantic equivalence of table content.
arXiv:2607. 29677v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Enterprise workflows increasingly rely on agents for \emph{schema-guided extraction}: given a document and a user-defined schema, the agent faithfully follows the schema to produce the correct output with source evidence as grounding metadata.
Practical AI systems increasingly need to turn long, heterogeneous documents into queryable relational databases, not isolated spreadsheets. In domains such as finance, healthcare, education, transportation, and enterprise operations, downstream workflows rely on normalized schemas, entity identities, keys, cross-table relationships, and integrity constraints for analytics, compliance, auditing, and SQL-backed decision making.
arXiv:2608. 15064v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Parsing visual documents into machine-readable representations is fundamental to document intelligence.
arXiv:2608. 08459v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Practical AI systems increasingly need to turn long, heterogeneous documents into queryable relational databases, not isolated spreadsheets.
arXiv:2506. 18421v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The majority of data in businesses and industries is stored in tables, databases, and data warehouses.
arXiv:2607. 17742v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Tables are a critical knowledge source in retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), but a retrieved table may lack sufficient evidence to answer a query, a property we call answerability.
Transforming table-form documents into machine-processable records requires recovering not only their visible content but also the multilevel structure that organizes it. However, existing benchmarks evaluate either holistic document outputs or conventional table grids, and their aggregate scores provide little insight into where structural failures occur.
arXiv:2608. 16050v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Spreadsheets are a primary medium for publishing tabular data, yet automatically extracting structured content from them remains difficult due to heterogeneous layouts, diverse file formats, and inconsistent organizational conventions.
arXiv:2606. 01393v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Document parsing and recognition are fundamental capabilities for vision-language models (VLMs) and document processing systems.
Spreadsheets are a primary medium for publishing tabular data, yet automatically extracting structured content from them remains difficult due to heterogeneous layouts, diverse file formats, and inconsistent organizational conventions. We address two core tasks in spreadsheet understanding: Cell-Type Classification (CTC), which assigns roles to cells, and Table Detection (TD), which identifies table bounding boxes within sheets.
arXiv:2606. 09323v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Tabular encoders are usually evaluated inside task-specific end-to-end pipelines, so models from different training paradigms are difficult to compare directly even when they operate on similar tabular signals.
arXiv:2606. 07843v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Schema matching, a critical task for integrating data from diverse sources, seeks to identify correspondences between columns across different schemas.
